revolving doors make the Continental stand
apart.
Typical Argen-
tine entertain-
ment is often
featured in the
second floor
salon.
Rooms are delightful. Most have two full clos-
ets, a balcony overlooking Sáenz Peña, large
bathroom, a television and mini-bar. High
French windows let in plenty of bright morning
light, but late sleepers needn't fret - there are
heavy curtains and shutters to block out the
sun.
THE HOTEL REGIDOR
Tucumán 451
4314-9516
100 rooms
The Regidor takes an impressive approach to
decor, individualistic and more Argentinean
than most other hotels in the city. There is an
estancia-
like coziness to the public areas, with
murals in the breakfast room, Flanders Gobelin
tapestries in the lounge, Sèvres porcelains and
sculptures in the main hall, and plenty of fire-
places throughout.
Guestrooms, though not as elaborate as the
public areas, do have personal touches. All are
carpeted and air conditioned. Reasonable rates
and a pleasant atmosphere keep this hotel pop-
ular with savvy travelers.
